- Deep purple in color, the nose oers ripe fruits like plum jam and camphor, followed by hints of black currant and tart cherry. The aging provides a pleasant background of sweet spices. A wine that becomes more nuanced the longer it spends in the glass, it is indulgent on the palate with finely grained tannins, an adherent texture and a long, fruity finish. We recommend consuming it at a temperature between 15o-18o C.
